Maia and Icarus – First Installment of New Middle Grade Fantasy Adventure Series Released
(Huntington, NY) — Huntington resident and author, James A. Perez, has published Maia and Icarus, the first installment of a new middle grade fantasy adventure series. The book tells the story of thirteen-year-old Maia Peterson as she reluctantly answers the “call to adventure.”
“Long ago, the Greek gods created a hidden world where they continue to reign, where the mighty temples of ancient Greece never crumbled and winged horses soar through the sky. Astonished to learn that her long-missing father was forced to sacrifice himself to protect the hidden world’s existence, Maia finds herself entangled in a battle between those gods that seek to return to Earth and those that wish to remain apart. With the help of a mysterious boy named Icarus, Maia must escape from those who wish to use her as a pawn, in a conflict that may ultimately determine the fate of both worlds.”
An electronic book version is available for the Amazon Kindle as well as at Smashwords.
